Liverpool

Had an action-packed day today! Thankful the kids slept relatively well last night so I had sufficient energy for it! Thankful for my parents' church as somewhere to take the children this morning early enough to provide entertainment for the slot in the day before heading off to Liverpool, which is what I was excited about yesterday :) Thankful 2 yr old slept on the way and 5 yr old happily listened to James and the Giant Peach!

Saw the new floor in the hall of our house there - very pleased with it - much better than all the cracked tiles that greeted visitors before! Thankful that it's done well and I like it :) Thankful for 5 yr old's friend's invite to his birthday party which is the main reason we went over - was lovely catching up with those friends, and nice that the kids happily played on the equipment while I chatted :) Thankful for lovely friends having us round for tea and a play afterwards, who live minutes away from the play centre we had been at for the party, which was with a different set of friends. The food and company were delightful as ever :) And thankful for a straight-forward journey home with one sleeping child and one listening to The Famous Five :) Finally, thankful bedtime was successful despite a few tired tears. Thank you God for all the good things in my life, and for being with me through the less so xxx
